The 24th Cape Town International Jazz Festival - March 2027
For more than two decades, the Cape Town International Jazz Festival has earned its reputation as Africa's Grandest Gathering, drawing music lovers from across South Africa and around the world.
But 2027 is set to rewrite the rule book.
Gone is the familiar format of one epic weekend under the roof of the Cape Town International Convention Centre. Instead, the festival is breaking out across the city, transforming March into a month-long celebration of live music, culture and creativity.
Exactly what that experience will look like is still one of the biggest talking points.
So far, organisers have confirmed that the festival will run throughout March 2027, building towards two flagship weekends of headline performances. Beyond that, many of the details that visitors need before booking their trip, including venues, artists, ticket information, schedules and how the new format will come together, are still to be announced.
We'll be following every official announcement closely and updating this page as new information becomes available.
Our aim is simple: to give you one reliable place to find the latest confirmed news about the 2027 Cape Town International Jazz Festival, without the guesswork.

Over the years we've arranged everything from weekend breaks for couples and groups of friends to corporate hospitality programmes, incentive groups and fully customised itineraries for international visitors.

Every package is built around the same principle: creating the right experience for the people travelling.
With the Cape Town International Jazz Festival entering an exciting new chapter in 2027, we'll once again be developing a range of travel packages to match. As more details of the festival are announced, our 2027 packages will be updated to reflect the new programme, venues and experiences.
